Famous quotes containing the word songs:

    “Let me make the superstitions of a nation and I care not who makes its laws or its songs either.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “Blues are the songs of despair, but gospel songs are the songs of hope.”
    —Mahalia Jackson (1911–1972)

    “O women, kneeling by your altar-rails long hence,
    When songs I wove for my beloved hide the prayer,
    And smoke from this dead heart drifts through the violet air
    And covers away the smoke of myrrh and frankincense;
    Bend down and pray for all that sin I wove in song....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
